<content type='text'>
There are some situations (e.g. in __pm_generic_call()), where
pm_runtime_suspended() is used to decide whether or not to execute
a device's (system) -&gt;suspend() callback.  The callback is not
executed if pm_runtime_suspended() returns true, but it does so
for devices that don't even support runtime PM, because the
power.disable_depth device field is ignored by it.  This leads to
problems (i.e. devices are not suspened when they should), so rework
pm_runtime_suspended() so that it returns false if the device's
power.disable_depth field is different from zero.

<title>Allow PHYS_OFFSET to be runtime determined</title>

This bases on work done earlier by Lennert Buytenhek and Mark A. Greer.
Compared to their approach zreladdr isn't guessed based on the pc
register but the bootloader is expected to pass PHYS_OFFSET in r3.  If
that value doesn't look right (e.g. isn't aligned) it is guessed based
on the value of sp.  This should work for CONFIG_ZBOOT_ROM, too.

To use it for your machine removing the definition of PHYS_OFFSET from
&lt;mach/memory.h&gt; and selecting CONFIG_RUNTIME_PHYS_OFFSET should be
enough.

<title>CRED: Fix __task_cred()'s lockdep check and banner comment</title>

<content type='text'>
Fix __task_cred()'s lockdep check by removing the following validation
condition:

	lockdep_tasklist_lock_is_held()

as commit_creds() does not take the tasklist_lock, and nor do most of the
functions that call it, so this check is pointless and it can prevent
detection of the RCU lock not being held if the tasklist_lock is held.

Instead, add the following validation condition:

	task-&gt;exit_state &gt;= 0

to permit the access if the target task is dead and therefore unable to change
its own credentials.

Fix __task_cred()'s comment to:

 (1) discard the bit that says that the caller must prevent the target task
     from being deleted.  That shouldn't need saying.

 (2) Add a comment indicating the result of __task_cred() should not be passed
     directly to get_cred(), but rather than get_task_cred() should be used
     instead.

Also put a note into the documentation to enforce this point there too.

<title>ACPI / Sleep: Allow the NVS saving to be skipped during suspend to RAM</title>

Commit 2a6b69765ad794389f2fc3e14a0afa1a995221c2
(ACPI: Store NVS state even when entering suspend to RAM) caused the
ACPI suspend code save the NVS area during suspend and restore it
during resume unconditionally, although it is known that some systems
need to use acpi_sleep=s4_nonvs for hibernation to work.  To allow
the affected systems to avoid saving and restoring the NVS area
during suspend to RAM and resume, introduce kernel command line
option acpi_sleep=nonvs and make acpi_sleep=s4_nonvs work as its
alias temporarily (add acpi_sleep=s4_nonvs to the feature removal
file).

<title>PCI/PM: Do not use native PCIe PME by default</title>

Commit c7f486567c1d0acd2e4166c47069835b9f75e77b
(PCI PM: PCIe PME root port service driver) causes the native PCIe
PME signaling to be used by default, if the BIOS allows the kernel to
control the standard configuration registers of PCIe root ports.
However, the native PCIe PME is coupled to the native PCIe hotplug
and calling pcie_pme_acpi_setup() makes some BIOSes expect that
the native PCIe hotplug will be used as well.  That, in turn, causes
problems to appear on systems where the PCIe hotplug driver is not
loaded.  The usual symptom, as reported by Jaroslav Kameník and
others, is that the ACPI GPE associated with PCIe hotplug keeps
firing continuously causing kacpid to take substantial percentage
of CPU time.

To work around this issue, change the default so that the native
PCIe PME signaling is only used if directly requested with the help
of the pcie_pme= command line switch.

Fixes https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=15924 , which is
a listed regression from 2.6.33.
